    Prevent Onedrive from Syncing at Startup


    Is there a way to prevent Onedrive from syncing at startup or perhaps completely disable it altogether?

    My reason for doing it is quite obscure and I not sure I can explain.

    Thank you.

    :)

    Stop Camera Roll Sync Notification

    Indeed, when I stop onedrive services at startup the popup stops. Yet, when I open the application the popup appears again. Turning off notifications for the app does not solve this issue.

    Hence, this means that Onedrive is asking for this camera roll sync, but there is no place in Onedrive options to turn it off.

    Is there a way to turn it off permanently (aside from actually syncing photos).

    Again, disable all Startups in Startup tab and msconfig>Services after Hiding All MS services, except Defender and OneDrive if you use it to sync files in real time.
